New Mesa acoustic amps

Mesa/Boogie has unveiled a new acoustic amplifier series featuring the Rosette 300 / Two:Eight Acoustic combo.

The Rosette line is designed not just for acoustic guitars, but also for mandolin, ukulele, violin/fiddle, dulcimer, cello, upright bass and other acoustic instruments.

Features include optimised channel specific XLR and ¼” inputs; optimised input circuitry addresses common tone degradation issues associated with compromised dual-purpose circuits fed by universal combo jacks, standard on many acoustic amplifiers today.

The four-band EQ Section provides the same degree of shaping power found in upscale recording or live sound consoles. Separate Low and High semi-parametric Mid Bands allow specific control over a wide range of frequencies.

The on-board Effects Suite includes three effects choices: Room Reverb, Hall Reverb and Reverb and Chorus. Parameter Controls provide adjustment of specific effect functions in each of the three modes.

The new acoustic amp is available as the Rosette 300 / Two:Eight Combo or Rosette Acoustic DI Preamplifier.

The Combo has an RRP of £1,350, while the DI Preamp will cost £299, available from Westside Distribution.
